My mind cannot comprehend the behavior of Israeli journalists and delegation on this year's Eurovision.

Here's the video of Israeli journalist harassing Joost Klein, contestant from Netherlands.

The journalist name is Dov Gil-Har.

Absolutely disgusting, shameless behavior. They harass contestants with so much confidence and without facing any consequences.

This is yet another disgraceful thing they've done this year, is there a limit? Their presence by itself created such a negative atmosphere for everyone there, both contestants and the crowd watching.

All of this could've been avoided if they were banned from competing, all of it.

Shame on EBU, shame on this "journalist", shame on Israel.

Honestly.. we tried creative, we tried gay, we tried fire and glitter... at this point we should just go fucking mental and give them 3 minutes of straight up off-key yodeling with nothing but pretzels and sausages as background visuals

Giant Siphonophores really out here doing the most, and somehow also the least

Love to sea it

*Update: this is not a real octopus but a spy bot for research. In a BBC vid(here), the spy bot helps an octopus to protect itself from sharks.

Parry this, you filthy Macedonian.

I think I dislike ‘fuck canon fanon rulez’ takes because time after time I see how boring and predictable fanon is and how often it reinforces racism and misogyny etc. in ways canon never did

and I think having to work around canon and with canon to make something new usually ends up pushing people to make something weirder and cooler

[starlit-rain]

Yeah it's all the same and I hate it

just learned about the ginkgo trees that survived the nuclear blast in Hiroshima

you cannot kill me in a way that matters

[traveleorzea]

At Hiroshima's Peace Memorial Park, you'll also find a Parasol tree that not only survived the bombing, but has since begun to produce more trees :)

But my favourite exhibit has to be from the nearby Honkawa Elementary school museum, commemorating the Canna plant that became a symbol of hope for many when it was discovered sprouting up in the wreckage only two weeks after the blast...after the Americans claimed nothing would grow in Hiroshima for seventy-five years:

With almost everything on earth there’s someone that’s dedicated their entire lives to it either through hobby or career and I’m so glad that there’s someone thinking about everything.

I’m glad that there’s people that travel around Tokyo taking pictures of trains and I’m glad that there’s people that design printers and I’m stoked that people like hiking down abandoned trails and reading old scientific texts from 400 bce. It’s cool. I’ve got my own corners of stuff I like. I hope I’m adding to something when I read ancient literature. If nothing else it makes me feel connected to everyone else with really specific interests.

there’s a guy on youtube who really likes romanian trains. he’s got hundreds of videos spanning 14 years of trainspotting and rearview rides in old and shabby trains on old and shabby 60-year-old rails. i (who also like romanian trains but i’m not like, passionate about them) thought it was a really cool hobby to have…….and then i found a full 4-hour rearview of the route to my grandparents’ village. the one i took every summer from birth into my 20s. every tiny little stop is nearly time-stamped and in-between there’s every river and bridge crossing and power station, every old silo and derelict water tower somehow still standing, and i remember all of it.

sometimes i let the video run in the background while working because i like the sounds (there’s no music like in similar videos from other channels and i’m very nostalgic about those sounds). a few times when i was at my lowest from depression and insomnia, i’d just stay in bed and watch all 4 uninterrupted hours of it. and i got to have this odd source of comfort in some of the worst moments of my life because one guy has a youtube channel, a gopro and a really cool hobby.
